Abstract: A transfer system including a contact member (81,82) for applying pressure against a copy substrate to create uniform contact between the copy substrate and a developed image on an imaging member (10). The transfer system includes a flexible transfer assist blade (82) and a rotatable cam (84) shaft having a lobe for deflecting the transfer assist blade into contact with the copy substrate.

Compositions wherein cyclosporin is conjugated to an immunogenic carrier or a label, optionally through a linking group, at an alanine nitrogen atom of the cyclic backbone of cyclosporin are also disclosed. Compositions wherein atiocyclosporin is conjugated, optionally through a linking group, to an immunogenic carrier or a label are also disclosed. Where cyclosporin is conjugated to an immunogenic carrier, the conjugates may be used as immunogens for the preparation of antibodies which are capable of recognizing cyclosporin. Where atiocyclosporin is conjugated to an immunogenic carrier, the conjugates may be used as immunogens for the preparation of antibodies which are capable of recognizing interfering cross-reactive material but substantially incapable of recognizing cyclosporin or cyclosporin-label conjugates. Where cyclosporin is conjugated to a label, the conjugates may be used as part of a signal producing system in cyclosporin assays.

Abstract: An electromagnetic rotary machine includes a rotor (50) capable of high speed rotation. 
     The electromagnetic rotary machine is driven by electromagnetic induction between the rotor (50) and a stator including a stator core and stator windings wound around the stator core. The electromagnetic rotary machine further includes position control windings wound around the stator core, and cage conductors (54) mounted to the rotor core (52). The number of poles of the position control windings is different from the number of poles of the stator windings. This difference causes at least either a radial magnetic force or an axial magnetic force to be exerted on the rotor (50). With divided end rings (56, 58), the cage conductors (54) form closed circuits with zero mutual inductance between the cage conductors (54) and the position control windings. 
     For example, the stator includes torque generating four-pole stator windings and two-pole position control windings. The rotor (50) indudes four-pole windings with particular conductors (54) being short-circuited by circumferentially divided end rings (56, 58).

Abstract: The side seam of a can is coated and heated inductively by passing it through a medium frequency, oscillating magnetic field generated by an induction coil wound around a core. The core is shaped and oriented so as to have two magnetically opposite poles direct magnetic flux in a concentrated manner from the coil into the side seams of cans traveling along a path of travel. The cores are constructed using individual laminations of high frequency core material, each less than about .006 inches thick, individually insulated from each other and bound together to form a U- or E-shaped core directing flux toward the workpiece. The induction coil is constructed using a form of Litz wire and the coil and core are air-cooled. In one embodiment, the core has a plurality of pole pieces each directed toward the path of travel. The induction coil is wound on the core such that sequential ones of the pole pieces along the path of travel have alternatingly magnetically opposite polarities. In one embodiment, the inductive heating apparatus is used as a pre-curing stage, downstream of a side seam inside coat applicator and upstream of a curing oven, but located in close enough proximity to the side seam inside coat applicator to heat the coating sufficiently to bind it in place so that it does not fall off the seam and onto the conveyor before it reaches the curing oven.
